Abstract

We present \textsc{MG-MAMPOSSt}, a license-free code to constrain modified gravity models by reconstructing the mass profile of galaxy clusters with the kinematics of the cluster's member galaxies. We describe the main features of the code and we show the capability of the method when the kinematic information is combined with lensing data. We discuss recent results and forecasts on two classes of models currently implemented in the code, characterized by different screening mechanisms, namely, chameleon and Vainshtein screening. We further explore the impact of possible systematics in view of application to the data from upcoming surveys. This proceedings summarizes the results presented at the ALTECOSMOFUN workshop in September 2021.<br />Comment: Proceedings of the ALTECOSMOFUN'21 conference published in Universe, Issue "Alternative Gravities and Fundamental Cosmology"
